Saul Alinsky, according to Time Magazine in 1970, was a "prophet of power to the people," someone who "has possibly antagonized more people . . . than any other living American." People Power introduces the major organizers who adopted and modified Alinsky's vision across the United States.

Review:
People Power: The Community Organizing Tradition of Saul Alinsky brings together in one place many of Alinsky’s most important organizing disciples who implemented his ideas on the ground and, in the process, added their own field-tested insights. Through their interviews, articles, speeches, and organizational documents, they reveal why the Alinsky organizing tradition remains relevant in our contemporary world. With their own writing, coeditors Schutz and Miller weave together the various strands into a coherent whole."
